Aims of the Subject

 

The Aim of this subject is to provide students with opportunities to enable them to:

  • Develop cognitive skills in computing through understanding the basic concept in computer science.
  • Understand the current development in information technology.
  • Solve problems by making use of information technology.
  • Adapt to an informative world that is constantly changing by a positive attitude.

 


Introduction of the Subject

Renovated in 2018, Our new STEM room is located at the 4th floor.
Not only there are 30 desktops and 100 tablets for teaching and
learning during lessons and extra curriculum classes, but also you
can find different kinds of new gadgets for learning.

All students have one lesson for computer studies per week. For
Primary 1-3 students, the main focus is learning the basic computing
techniques,  software applications, daily use of computer and even
coding, such as Tux Paint, MS paint, Microsoft Word, Coding Galaxy
and Scratch. For Primary 4-6 students, they learn coding, 3D modelling
and software applications such as TinkerCAD, MS Office and AR/VR.

Through the curriculum, students acquire the knowledge of different
software as well as the application of information technology, which allows them to make use of these essential elements in life-long learning.

 

Learning through STEM activities

Inside and outside the STEM Room, students have chances to experience and learn through STEM activities.

 

 

3D Modelling – TinkerCAD

Students are designing their first 3D model on TinkerCAD.
What do you want to make?

Coding Activities

As beginners, students learn the concept of coding with different kinds of games like Coding Galaxy.

3D Printing

With our new 3D printers, student can have their 3D models printed out. Do you recognise what it is printing?

Virtual Reality(VR) Learning Activity

There are VR and AR gadgets in the STEM Room for students to develop their unlimited creativity.

 

 

Student Performance

Other than learning, students also have different opportunities to make use of what they learn.See how they perform in school and in the competitions.

 

 

3D Modelling

Students are just innovative and creative. Using 3D modelling tools, they create a world of fantasy.

Painting

With drawing tools like MSpaint and Tux Paint, our Primary one students create their lovely artwork.

Coding

Students learn how to create games and animation using Scratch.

Inter-School Robot Competition

Students are making their auto-pilot racing car using Micro:bit.

STEM Competition

See how students make their own RC cars and Micro:bit controlled race boat to win prizes.

Coding Galaxy Competition

P1-3 students also have the chance to compete in the inter class Coding Galaxy competition. Working in pairs, they are performing very well.
